Fortnite – A Guide to Tracking

 Tracking is an art that when mastered can vastly improve your game. Here is everything you need to know to make the most of it.

We all want to make the most of using our Fortnite weapons when playing the popular battle royale title. With that being said, you will want to find ways to improve your aim, and become a pro Fortnite tracker. To make the most of this, you need to take into account a few features to work on. This includes finding ways to make the most of your aim and shooting with a clear shot.

What is Tracking?

Tracking is having the ability to move your aim to follow a moving target. This is a difficult skill to get to grips with, since you have to be able to keep your aim on point as your target traverses across of the map. This technique relies on muscle memory, so it is going to take some practice for you to use it effectively. So if you want to be brushing up your skills with the best then there are a few settings to look into.

Settings and Sensitivity

To get started with tracking, firstly we need to have the best possible settings. Make sure that you avoid any clipping by having the game running as smoothly as possible. Your frames per second are important here to avoid low draw distances, so alter the settings accordingly.

Once you have your settings on point, you need to fix your sensitivity. This is more of a subjective feature, since it needs to cater to how you actually play, so find the settings that you are comfortable playing with. That being said, avoid playing around with these settings too much, as you are going to want to have it at a stable point.

Tracking With Weapons

Tracking with certain Fortnite Weapons are going to be more important than others. If you have something at short distance with a higher blast range such as a shotgun, it isn’t going to be as important compared to mid/long range weapons, since its going to be much harder to track enemies that are at a distance. The more practice you get with longer range weapons, the better you are going to improve your tracking skills.

Ultimately, the only way you are going to get better in these situations is by practice. So head into the battlefield, and get used to the way in which the Fortnite weapons move. You may have to do this from staying static and train yourself to aim from a distance on a random target. You don’t necessarily have to do this with enemy players right off the bat, as you can use objects that are far away to practice with. Once you are ready, start using it on your opponents.

Practice will make perfect in this scenario. It is going to take you a long time to get used to this method, but you just need to focus on where your shortcomings are and work on them. If you happen to lose your target whilst trying to track, try to figure out why you lost them and improve on it next time. Correcting these shortcomings is going to be what helps you advance as a Fortnite tracker. As mentioned, it is a difficult skill to master, so don’t be too hard on yourself if you are struggling. Look at what you need to work on, get your settings right, and you will be a pro in no time.
